The Royal Oak

The Royal Oak A traditional boozer in Bethnal Green serving cracking Sunday Roasts and British pub classics.

Located smack in the centre of the exuberant Columbia Road, The Royal Oak is Bethnal Green's pub of choice. With its bustling flower market on Sundays, it's everyone's favourite place to duck into to escape the big crowds. The original interior, secret backyard and friendly team add to the homely feel, making us your snug neighbourhood hang-out and families' go-to. While downstairs bar is a hive o

f activity, the upstairs offers cracking Sunday Roasts and only the best of British classics. Expect no-nonsense pub grub and impressive selection on the beer front. Ideal for catching up over a pint, all-important family get-togethers or a quick stop on the way back from the busy market.
